    x86/shadow: adjust minimum allocation calculations
    
    A previously bad situation has become worse with the early setting of
    ->max_vcpus: The value returned by shadow_min_acceptable_pages() has
    further grown, and hence now holds back even more memory from use for
    the p2m.
    
    Make sh_min_allocation() account for all p2m memory needed for
    shadow_enable() to succeed during domain creation (at which point the
    domain has no memory at all allocated to it yet, and hence use of
    d->tot_pages is meaningless).
    
    Also make shadow_min_acceptable_pages() no longer needlessly add 1 to
    the vCPU count.
    
    Finally make the debugging printk() in shadow_alloc_p2m_page() a little
    more useful by logging some of the relevant domain settings.
